People ask me what gives me hope. Check out this story. Educators teaching dignity. Kids leading with dignity. A community intent on creating a culture of dignity. That’s what gives me hope. wfsb.com/2026/02/12/ham…

Pope Leo says it so well: the world is hungry for 'solidarity and diversity,' and @SpecialOlympics athletes teach us how to find it. When we play together, we learn how to live together too. Thank you, Pope Leo. We can’t wait to welcome you to our movement again.

On the occasion of the celebration of the XXV #WinterOlympicGames and of the XIV Paralympic Games, I wish to address my greeting and good wishes to those who are directly involved, and at the same time, take this opportunity to offer a reflection for everyone. vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

I didn’t come to Capitol Hill Day to speak. I came to listen. To athletes and Unified partners who show what real inclusion looks like—personal, consistent, lived. Their voices are shaping the future. Thank you to the members of Congress and the United States Senate who take the time to listen and support our @specialolympics athletes and our mission. If these voices move you, please take action: takeaction.io/specialolympic… @SONorthAmerica

We started our efforts to end the R-word almost 20 years ago. We thought we’d made progress, but not as much as we had hoped—there is still work to be done. Please join us, spread the word to end the use of the R-word. brnw.ch/21wZHlO. .
